Unity Church Of Clearwater

Leddy Hammock This place . . . . . . is where Spirit has brought me for a holy purpose. . . . is where I always feel God’s presence; it blesses me when I think of it. . . . is such a part of me, and I am filled with grace and peace. . . . always heals me somehow, and stays with me when I go forth. Again and again, Spirit brings me home to this place.

Dieter RandolphI am a child of God, becoming more loving as I grow up.As I grow up spiritually, I express greater love – less self-centered and more Spirit-centered.I learn to love more perfectly as I resolve to evolve.Thank God for evolution! I am not “falling in love,” I am rising in love.

StoweGood(from The Book of Matthew, Chapter 6, verses 9-13 in The Message: the Bible in Contemporary Language by The Reverend Eugene H. Peterson, a Presbyterian Minister, and published in segments between 1993 to 2002.  This refreshing idiomatic translation of the original languages of the Bible is used in many American churches today:“With a God like this loving you, you can pray very simply. Like this:Our Father in heaven,Reveal who you are.Set the world right;Do what’s best— as above, so below.Keep us alive with three square meals.Keep us forgiven with you and forgiving others.Keep us safe from ourselves . . . .You’re in charge!You can do anything you want!You’re ablaze in beauty!Yes. Yes. Yes.”

Leddy Hammock  God is my Source. God lovingly provides and there is plenty for all. God is my Guide. In God’s light, I see my way clearly. God is my Life.  I am becoming stronger in God’s presence. God is my Light.  I walk in beauty, in the healing Light of Love.

Dieter Randolph.  . .I am a part of this thing called Life . . .. . . God has been good to me!. . . Life is good!. . . What, me worry? God loves me and takes care of me!. . . God wants me to live abundantly, and so far, so good!!

Leddy Hammock I believe that the good life is now arriving for me, right on time. I believe that good fortune is on my side and these are the good times. I believe that every day, in every way, I am getting better and better. My mind is renewed and my life is transformed right now, in my own sweet time. You better believe it!

Leddy HammockLyrics to “Illuminate” by Sloan Wainwright and Stephen Murphy“Light the candle, illuminate your heart. Don’t be afraid of the dark . . . .Ring out the old, bring in the new, bless and release what you have to, and love with love with hope . . . .Ring out the old, bring in the new, bless and release what you have to, and love with hope . . . .Light the candle, illuminate your heart.”

Leddy Hammock I wouldn’t do again what my old self would allow, but I didn’t know then what I know now. As I change my thinking, I change my life. The Christ in me knows better, so the Christ in me shows better. Happy New Year, Happy New You – Strong and Serene in 2016!

Leddy Hammock from the words of The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.:“As we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead.We cannot turn back. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope.With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together . . . .With this faith we will be able . . . to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day. . . .Let freedom ring!”

Leddy “When you hear a voice no one else can hear, yet clear and loud and ringing in your ear. And you finally know what it’s time to do, that’s your true calling calling you. You ask yourself, ‘Is that a voice I can trust?’  You may think you can’t, but you know that you must. You’re afraid you’ll fall if you let go, but there’s only one way you’ll ever know. Those wings you keep folded are meant to be used when your true calling is calling you. When your heart’s wide open ‘cause your mind’s been changed and the dreams you’ve dreamed are not the same, there’s a gate that’s open, you can walk right through. That’s your true calling calling you.” from “True Calling” by Jana Stanfield and Jimmy Scott

Leddy Hammock(adapted from lyrics by Sloan Wainwright and Jan Garrett):“Sacred Mother, full of grace, surrender to her dark embrace,for deep inside this winter’s night is birthed the coming of the Light.”“Unseen Guides bless your light, set aside the how and why.Restore your soul and rest assured, safely in their keeping.”“Lullaby, my dearest child, let the world go for awhile.It will spin and make its way, gently while you’re sleeping.”“Receive this kindness as a prayer.  You will find such comfort there.The Love Divine, Her Grand Design, will breathe us into being.Receive the coming of the Light.”

Dieter Randolph Make of my heart a manger, Lord, to receive the newborn Christ Child.Calm my fears, and give me peace, Lord, that I witness the birth of the Christ Child in everyday experience.Give me a sign, Lord, that the Christ Child is born in the midst of the simple life.In steadfast, stable faith, Lord, I behold the newborn Christ Child in the manger of my heart.

Leddy Hammock“We waited then; we’re waiting still.  The answer lies within our will.Every child that’s born each day brings the gift of peace and shows the way, and is a Child of peace in its own way, to show the hope of possibility.”“Child of peace, pure and sweet. Show me how to be a Child of peace.When a child is born, it brings the gift of peace, an offering from the universe to everyone.”“For unto us a Child is born, and so the seeds of love are sown with every child that’s born in every land.Every time I see a child, I greet it with a loving smile.  I give my heart to the Child of peace.”“I bless the ground beneath my feet and long for guidance to receive the gift the season brings.In my heart there is a space.  Fill it with your loving grace, Child of peace  Child of peace, pure and sweet.  Show me how to be a Child of peace.”

Leddy Hammock (inspired by lyrics by Anji Kat): “I remember who I am supposed to be. I am the Light, I am the Love. I am the faith that never gives up. I am more than I seem.  I am called to be everything I can be. I am the Light, I am the Love, I am the faith that never gives up. That’s who I am!”

LEDDY HAMMOCKGod is Love and always welcomes me home.Even if I seem to forget for a time who I really am, and Whose I really am, God does not forget me.Even if I lose my way, God will always bring me home again.Sweet memories of my spiritual Home live inside me still and I am forever coming Home.

Leddy HammockGod is Love and God’s will for us is good and only good.In the Grand Design, whatever is not of Spirit will fall; whatever is of Spirit will prevail.Whether I always understand or not, God’s plans are always for the greater good.Everything is all right in the end.  If it is not all right, then it is not yet the end.

  Dieter Randolph What are we talking about this Sunday? I am safe, for wherever I am, God is. I am safe, for God is mighty in the midst of me. I am safe, for in God I trust. I am safe in my safe zone: the Secret Place of the Most High, the silent space of prayer. Lord, teach me to pray.  

Leddy HammockI am open and receptive to new direction to help me find my way. Land ‘O Goshen!I am sent to serve God joyously wherever I go, so I get my kicks on Route 66!By the grace of God, we have all come to the place where we are.By divine appointment, we are souls on the move.I stay out of my own way and I grow as I go, traveling light, migrating toward my greater good.Every time I’ve got to move on, I move on!

Leddy HammockBy the power of the spoken word of faith, I cast out limiting error beliefs.In the name and through the power of Jesus Christ, I speak the Truth that makes me free.I am centered in the Christ consciousness that drives out every demonic thought and establishes me in peace.In the name and nature of Jesus Christ, I now demonstrates authority over so-called demons.I refuse to go to hell or stay there!

Leddy Hammock“The words I say come back to me.  I choose my words carefully.”“What you say is what you get.When I feel I’ve lost my way, I find perfect words to say.”“Words and thoughts are seeds that grow.  This is what I know.”“As I speak my words have power. My life opens like a flower.”
